Prior to using the iCColor interface, you must print out the icColor_4color.PS, located in the psfiles folder at the root of the drive where Wasatch SoftRIP is installed. (Use icColor_5color.PS for a 5 color device, etc.) These are the only test patterns that will work with this interface.
Both the USB and Serial connections should be detected automatically. No configuration should be necessary.
After you click on the GretagMacbeth iCColor option from the Densitometers menu, the following window will be displayed:
This Process Test Strips screen begins the strip reading process. Select the colors that you would like to linearize. To begin reading the strips, click on the Read Strips button.
When prompted, insert the linearization target into the device with the arrow on the target pointing toward the device. The strip reading process will start.
If the reading process fails, the device should allow you to reinsert the strip to continue. If not, and the device returns to its main menu, simply select the first option on the device's main menu, Read Color Target, and the device should again prompt you to reinsert the strip.
After the densitometer has returned the strip values, click on the Finish button to generate the curves. Colors that you did not measure will not be overwritten should curves already exist.
